you can get a good one for 200$ at ebay. The AI(s) 2/28mm does a really great job. If you don't need f1.4 and if you can live without AF it is a good alternative to the 1.4/28mm.
I love the 2/28mm. It is my standard walk around lens on my D200.

my sigma 30/1.4 is also sharp in the corners, except at f/1.4. that is expected. you can find plenty of 28/1.4 versus 30/1.4 comparisons, and in the test images the sigma holds its own, actually even sharper in some pictures.

Another fan of the 28 f2 here. Very good colors, contrast and sharpness, even wide open. In a few extreme cases it suffers some color aberration, although you really need to look for them (eg shooting a tiny white rope under midday sun! :biggrin: )
